(Get it? Get it?)

[3:40 PM] Finally getting to "Luck Be A Lady" is kinda satisfying.

Mmmmmm choral harmonies. Roll 'em, roll 'em, what's the holdup? Roll 'em!

Of course, now we have to work it . . . and work it . . . and work it . . .

Dinner break in twenty minutes, though. Yay!

[7:59 PM] Aaaand the people all said sit down
(siddown!)
Sit down you're rocking the boat
People all said sit down
(siddown!)
Sit down you're rocking the boat
And the Devil will drag you under
By the sharp lapel of your checkered coat!
Siddown, siddown, siddown, siddown,
Sit down you're rocking the boat!

I . . . could honestly take or leave, like, the last two-thirds of the show. EXCEPT "Luck Be A Lady" and "Rockin' The Boat." Showstoppers, baby.

I love the first few numbers. "Fugue," "Oldest Established," "Guys and Dolls," "Adelaide's Lament" . . .
